Since we are a Christian website. We feel it is important to tell you what we believe:

We pray that through our website some who have never known Jesus will come to know Him as their Lord and Savior. We also hope to help others spend quality time in God's Word and the study of what it means to be a faithful Disciple of Christ.

Our mission is the Great Commission:19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:19-20 (NASB)

We believe there is one True God. The Creator of the Universe. He exists in three persons: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Genesis 1:1, 26, 27, 3:22; 1 Peter 1:2; Matthew 28:19; Psalm 90:2

We believe in Jesus Christ who is God's Son. He is co-equal with the Father. He is both God and Man. He was born of a virgin. He lived a sinless life and offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for our sins, dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days and rose again overcoming both sin and death. He ascended into Heaven and will return again to reign as the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Matthew 1:22-23; Romans 1:3-4; Hebrews 4:14-15; Isaiah 9:6; Acts 1:9-11; John 1:1-5; 14:10-30, 14:16-17

We believe in the Holy Spirit who is co-equal with the Father and the Son. He is the Helper sent by God to those who believe. He is present in us from the moment of salvation. He provides the believer with guidance for daily living, understanding of the Word and gives each believer a spiritual gift when they are saved. 2 Corinthians 3:17; Acts 1:8; Ephesians 1:13;5:18; John 16:7=13; 14:16-27; 1 Corinthians 2:12; 3:16; Galatians 5:25

We believe in the Truth of God's Word, the Bible. We believe it is the inerrant Word of God, written by human authors under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is our authority for life. 2 Timothy 1:13-16; 2 Peter 1:20-21; Psalm 119:105; Proverbs 30:5

We believe that we are made in the spiritual image of God to be like him in His character. Adam's sin took us into a fallen state and plunged us into depravity. We are all sinful and our sin separates us from God. Genesis 1:27; Psalm 8:3-6; Romans 3:23; Isaiah 53:6a; 59:1-2

We believe that God offers us a free gift of Salvation which we receive through the repentance of our sins and faith in Jesus Christ alone. Repentance means to turn away from our sin and to turn toward Christ. Faith means trusting in Jesus Christ alone for the remission of our sins. When we place our faith in Him, His perfect obedience is credited to us as righteousness. Every one who truly is saved will spend eternity in heaven with Jesus, while those who die in their sins will spend eternity in Hell. Romans 6:23; Titus 3:5; John 14:6; 1:12; Galatians 3:26; Ephesians 2:8-9; Romans 5:1

We believe each person is able to come to God for himself or herself. There is no need for a third party to tell us how to pray and how to interpret the Word. All those who believe are ministers of God. All believers are of a holy priesthood chosen by God to offer up spiritual sacrifice. There is only one mediator between God and mankind, and that is Jesus Christ. Revelation 1:5-6; Ephesians 4:11-12; 1 Timothy 2:5; Romans 12:1; 1 Peter 2:5
